Lead, call the raise, lead turn, fold to re-raise?

Looks like you ran into a set. Did you have any sort of read on this player at all?

Re: NL newb asks: how do you play this top two pair?
I didnt have much of a read, as a result of not playing at this table particularly long. Villain had not done anything out of the ordinary so far; certainly he was not a maniac.
Is top two pair basically not a hand you go all in with against a random opponent on a ragged board? Or should I just realize that if I flop top two pair and my opponent flops a set, Im going to be paying him off? |

Re: NL newb asks: how do you play this top two pair?
Ive learned (the hard way) that two pair is not a hand to get married to. When I flop two pair, I play it pretty fast. In this case Id probably muck it.

just so you know, some people (me included) will not bother to read a post that is not converted, you can convert hand histories into nicer looking form here:

btw, I have used the hand converter before, but for some reason this hand just wasnt converting properly..
